ISELIN, N.J., Oct. 25, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On Track Innovations
Ltd. ("OTI") (Nasdaq:OTIV) today announced that its subsidiary, PARX
Ltd. ("PARX"), has signed an operations agreement with H.S.
Participacoes Ltda., which is part of the Brazilian Reunidas Group, to
introduce EasyPark(TM) to several states in Brazil. Initial orders for
more than $500,000 have been received. The EasyPark(TM) solution offers
a modular, quick and easy to implement parking solution with minimal
investment. With EasyPark(TM) OTI generates revenues from both product
sales and recurring fees.

PARX is responsible on behalf of OTI for marketing parking solutions in
international markets, will manage the program, with H.S. Participacoes
to be responsible for local marketing, sales and operations of the
EasyPark(TM) system in the abovementioned Brazilian states.

Leveraging a decade of field proven implementations in various
countries around the world, the implementation in Brazil aims to
upgrade the exiting parking payment methods such as paper parking
tickets and Pay and Display machines. Reunidas is a well-known
Brazilian group with a vast experience in management of commercial
fleets and working with local municipalities in Brazil.

PARX's local operator, H.S. Participacoes, expects initial
implementation and system trial run phase to be followed by full scale
deployment in the first half of 2012 in several major Brazilian cities
across the northern part of the country addressing approximately 2.5
million drivers.

Commenting on the cooperation, Oded Bashan, OTI's Chairman and CEO,
said, "The project in Brazil is another step in our efforts to launch
PARX's parking solutions in various global markets. These are based on
our patented technology, offering a cost effective, user friendly, easy
to operate solution with a proven business case. The project in Brazil
is another example of our strategy of focusing on projects that
generate both product sales followed by recurring revenues via
transaction, licensing or royalty fees and service charges."

The EasyPark(TM) system offers a unique on-street and off-street
parking management solution with minimum investment that does not
require any expensive infrastructure or ongoing expensive maintenance.
EasyPark(TM) provides detailed reports to the municipality in order to
better manage and monitor parking patterns across town. The parking
system is able to support multiple rates, cities and tariffs in a
modular, scalable and easy to implement way.

EasyPark(TM) creates a uniquely convenient user experience by
eliminating the need for cash, change, and looking for parking meters.
To activate EasyPark(TM) the driver turns on the contactless unit and
places it in the car window. Upon returning, the driver turns the
device off. The driver can reload the device with additional parking
funds either online or through public reloading stations. The system is
environmentally friendly by eliminating the need for paper tickets.
